Members don't see this ad.

I've seen at ton of OOS w/draws, no IS 🙁 Hate that they have 2 separate lists.

The 30th falls on a Saturday - does anybody know if this means it will follow the rules same as previous acceptance dates, in that we won't be notified until Monday evening?

Per AAMC: "if any date falls on a weekend/holiday the recommendation(s) will apply to the following business day."

I feel you man, gonna take a break after my album drops tonight...feeling a bit burned out..

 

[anichols8]

IS; just withdrew acceptance and scholarship. Good luck you guys!

 

[coltsorbroncos]

Is everybody pretty sure @anichols8 is one of the few IS withdrawals?

 

[swagg]

IS here! I'll be withdrawing my acceptance and scholarship soon. Best of luck to those on the waitlist!! 🙂

 

[futuredoctorthetodd]

I'm curious to how long it takes from the time someone withdraws an acceptance until they notify someone on the waitlist. Hopefully for us waitlisters its a few days after they withdraw!

Has anyone been told where they are on the waitlist? I know that VCU supposedly doesn't release that info, but I'm wondering if anyone managed to find out anyways.

Only 2 from these forums? Does anyone know how vcu handles acceptances off of the wait list?

 

[Aubrey Graham]

Ugh I wished the wait list was more exclusive...I rather be rejected now and know what I'm doing next year then having to wait...

 

[eradicator]

So do you guys think all acceptances went out already for the seats that became available on april 30th??? and now any acceptances we will get will be from the waitlisted ppl who give up their seat after getting acceptance????

I think so...

 

[xkali6]

People with multiple acceptances technically have until tonight to make their decision so don't lose hope just yet 🙂

When you've been on the WL for months it's hard to not lose hope 🙂.

For those accepted off the WL, how long do you have to accept before they rescind the offer?

They want you to pay the $100 deposit and submit the matriculation agreement within 2 weeks.

[VAmed2016]

Anyone get an AAMC Background Check Consent Request this morning? Just curious as to which school is requesting it. Maybe it means good things.

[mediatationgal]

Does VCU Med have a program similar to their D.5 for dental school? I know some schools have one year programs for students who are wait listed for med school to boost their creditials, just wondering if VCU might have a similar one.
